I'm in the same boat. My pond will be done by the weekend and I will likely have a mixture of artificial and natural cover. I have a bunch of pines that I chopped down, drying out in my backyard, because we've always been told that "christmas trees" are good for cover. But we've also been told that pines can be very acidic and contain higher levels of tannins. Curious to see your responses.
